The device that securely holds your content, should be just as personal. Having listened to our customers, we are expanding the options available on our WD Passport family of personal storage devices with more features, content management functions and fashionable design.

The drives capacity gauge that enables users to know at-a-glance how much space is available. They contain automatic backup software, which lets users designate files and folders for automatic and continuous backup. The included Synchronization software lets users sync their changes, and protect their information with 128-bit encryption. They retrieve forgotten files from any MioNet-enabled PC (compatible with Windows only), and copy them to My Passport Elite with MioNet installed, allowing users to retrieve forgotten files from the road using the unique MioNet Key software.

The products are available in 4 soft-touch colors bronze, titanium, Westminster blue and cherry red. They come with 5-year limited warranty. MSRP for the My Passport Elite USB Drive with 250 GB capacity is INR 10350 and the My Passport Elite 320 GB is INR 12150.
